Hit And Run Case: Trouble continues for Salman Khan


Salman Khan Hit And Run Case


Salman Khan is in trouble again. The re-trial for the hit-and-run case of 2002 started on Monday in the Mumbai sessions court. The hearing involved partial deposition of a witness in a Mumbai court.

The trial began with a number of witnesses deposing before the court. However, the actor himself was missing from all the action. The court has asked Salman to remain present on May 6 when the eyewitnesses, who were injured in the accident would be examined by the prosecution.

One of the first witnesses to depose in the court, Samba Gowda, said he had drawn panchnama of the articles seized by police on the day of the incident on September 28, 2002. But the deposition had to be delayed because material evidence 'could not be traced' and there was no identification of the evidence in the panchnama prepared by the police.

Samba Gowda told prosecutor Jagannath Kenjalkar that it was a big car which rammed into a laundry and its bumper hit the shutter of the shop. He said he saw glass pieces, number plate of the car and bumper parts lying on the spot when he reached the spot along with the police. These articles were later seized by police.

"I can identify the articles collected by police from the place of accident," said Gowda, who belong to Karnataka.

Two more witnesses were discharged as they had admitted the panchnamas drawn by them. A list of total 64 witnesses had been submitted by the prosecution, but not all were examined.

Sessions Judge D W Deshpande had asked prosecution to produce eyewitnesses and the first witness who was injured in the accident on March 26, but the witnesses failed to turn up making this the second occasion when the fresh trial did not begin in this case. The trial was then postponed to April 28.

Salman was earlier being tried for the lesser offence of causing death by negligence, which carries a punishment of upto two years in jail. But the present charge imposed on him of culpable homicide not amounting to murder carries a maximum jail sentence of 10 years.

The Bollywood superstar is alleged to have ran over his Toyota Land Cruiser on people sleeping on a footpath outside a bakery in suburban Bandra on September 28, 2002, killing one and injuring four others. The case has gone from court to court with arguments centred around whether Salman was driving the car that day or not. The Mumbai police say they have enough evidence against him.

Truth Behind Sunny Leone's Strip Dance

Looks like the Indo Canadian adult star was disturbed by the rumors of her strip show at a party on the Mumbai-Pune highway on April 18.

The whole of the social media actually went crazy showcasing Sunny's strip show at the private party. But seems no one from the social circuit confirmed the news before publishing.

Sunny Leone felt offended after getting the sniff of the speculations about her on social media and tweeted, "April 18 was shooting @TinaNLolo and night was at @Mayyurrgirotra store launch, please do some fact checking before printing lies." She also said that the pictures which are floating across the web are not hers.

The weekend buzz on the social media was that Sunny Leone performed a raunchy act at a party thrown by a diamond merchant on April 18 on the Mumbai-Pune highway. Sunny was also alleged to have charged a handsome 40 Lacs for the strip show.

Well, all we can say is Sunny's past doesn't seem to stop haunting her. She is very often held in controversies and it is clear from her tweets that this disturbs her. Do not worry Baby Doll, controversies pave way to stardom!

Pongadi Neengalum Unga Kaadhalum Tamil movie review


Pongadi Neengalum Unga Kaadhalum Tamil movie review: Pongadi Neengalum Unga Kaadhalum is a drama thriller directed by Ramakrishnan and produced by K R Kannan. The music of this venture is composed by Kannan. While Ramakrishnan and Aathmiya are cast in leading roles, Karunya, Jayaprakash, Sendrayan, Imman Annachi and Swaminathan feature in supporting roles. Now, let's take a look at the story and the movie review.

A young woman is date raped by her boyfriend and his friends, and the whole ordeal is captured on camera by her attackers. She can't cope with the traumatic experience and commits suicide. Her father who is a police commissioner, is desperate to find those who destroyed his daughter's life and pushed her to commit suicide.

Meanwhile, in another storyline Divya (Aadhmiya), who belongs to a rich family, wins over the heart of the protagonist (Ramakrishnan) who is a petty thief after which she turns his life upside down with a vengeance. Why she wants to destroy him, is where the two storylines meet and reason behind these events is the plot of the movie.

The first half of the Pongadi Neengalum Unga Kaadhalum seems to go nowhere and has very little in terms of a plot development. The director has done a poor job as the movie seems to have no rhythm or clear sense of direction. The logic behind the storylines is absurd and whimsical.

The movie does seems to improve a bit after the interval, but still the entertaining moments are far and few. To make it worse, the movie does seem to have an anti women tilt. A few comedy moments in the police station manages to make you smile, but they aren't enough to keep you glued to your seats.

Chandamama Kathalu Telugu Movie Review

`

Chandamama Kathalu Telugu Movie Review: Chandamama Kathalu, a Telugu weaving of eight different stories is directed by Praveen Sattaru and produced by Chanakya Bhooneti. The film that showcased eight sub-stories revolve around love, greed and emotion features Lakshmi Manchu, Aamani, Naresh, Krishnudu, Chaitanya Krishna, Abhijeet, Naga Shaurya, Vennela Kishore, Amitha Rao and Richa Panai in the lead roles. Let's look over the movie review and story.

The plot of the movie interwined different stories in a nice way. The film depicts dejected lover, a widow who is reunited with her ex-boy friend, a model who was betrayed by her husband, a gluttonous beggar, a street villager, a struggling bachelor and a father, who is worried about his daughter chronic illness. All of them are connected in the name of love and greed, and story moves on.

According to the movie review, very different and difficult kind of genre is induced in the Tollywood movie and dialogues are impressive. The script is wonderful and the music and background scored by Mickey J Meyer is the other highlight of the movie and scored positive comments.

Cinematography and editing are the another strength of Chandamama Kathalu movie. The performance of the stars is average and somewhere narration is missing in the flick. The first half goes well and in the second half, emotion quotient is very high, but unable to define crux neatly, as per the film reviews.

Winding of eight stories appears a bit boring and illogical. Also, poor execution by the director, let the movie not rock the box-office, as stitiching of these stories isvivant good, but their end was quite appears in hurry without proper reasoning. All in all, in accordance to Chandamama Kathalu reviews, movie is not upto the mark, as it was expected.

Madhubala Ek Ishq Ek Junoon: Gunjan Utreja quits the show because of Vivian Dsena?




According to the recent reports, Gunjan Utreja who plays the role of Abhay Kapoor in popular daily soap “Madhubala Ek Ishq Ek Junoon” is all set to quit the show. And return of Vivian is one of the main reasons behind his departure from the show.

Post Vivain's departure, Gunjan was brought into the show to play the lead role called Abhay. The latest plotline in the popular show focussed on the love story of Abhay and Madhu. Abhay was made the pivotal character in the show.

However, due to the decreasing TRP ratings show producers brought Vivian back in the show. Though the TRP ratings haven't improved, Vivian's re-entry in the show has altered dynamics in the daily soap.

To accommodate Vivain in the show, Gunjan's character has been decreased in importance and has also been turned negative. And this hasn't gone down well with him, as he had joined the show to play a lead role. This change in dynamics also lead to creative differences between the show producers and Gunjan which resulted in later walking away from the show.

“I have informed the production house about my decision. I am going abroad on May 3 for 15 days, so May 2 will be my last day of shoot. My character is not shaping up the way it was promised. The creative differences can’t be resolved and so, there is no chance of me returning to the show,” he told a leading daily.

Yeh Hai Bakrapur Movie review


Yeh Hai Bakrapur Movie review: Yeh Hai Bakrapur is a social satire directed by Janaki Vishwanathan who is best known for her National Award Winning Debut Film “Kutty” and produced by Ramesh S Arunachalam . The music of the movie is composed by Agnee and Hemanti Sarkar has done the editing.

The movie aims to bring the obsessions and superstition of a small village into the spotlight. The movie features Anshuman Jha, Asif Basra , Suruchi Aulakh , Faiz Khan and Yoshika Verma in pivotal roles. Now, let's take a look at the story and the movie review.

The plot of the movie revolves around the life of family of Qureshis and their pet goat who is named after the Badshah of Bollywood Shahrukh Khan. Due to extraordinary circumstances he attains the stature of a hero in the village and is revered by all in the village.

However, he soon becomes the centre of a social mess as everyone wants to benefit from his popularity. Even the Sheikh from Dubai is interested in him. So, in which direction this social mess leads to is plot of the movie.

Janaki has done a decent job in making this social satire. She has intelligently used the different threads of a small village community to show how our society operates, how greed destroys those who are helpless and weak.

However, the acting department is a big letdown in the movie. Almost entire star cast has failed to deliver a high calibre performance which would do justice to the good script of the movie. The editing of the movie is also sub par. Overall, Yeh Hai Bakrapur has a nice concept, but the execution is disastrous.

Both of them fell in her love and u-turn comes in their crazy battle. Later, she supports an honest politician who stands against a corrupted politician, and told Billa and Ranga to help in election campaigning with no illegal ways. Then, corrupted politician employed a conspiracy against all of them and story moves on.

The content of the movie is very good and there is fine balance of comedy, action, romance and drama in Billa Ranga. Well written script drops a good message before everyone and the performance of cast is well renowned by the audience, as per the reviews. In the starting, it is difficult to assess where the story is heading, but after it picks up the pace and goes well ahead.

The script is engaging, but not much appealing. Music scored by Santosh Narayan gained very positive reviews. Unique soundtrack inventively mixed with Kerela-style sound with dubstep proves to be an absolute cracker for Billa Ranga, Telugu debut. Entertaining movie very well represented all the elements on the screen. But, lack of star cast made the movie to catch only small screens.

Mohan once again excels with his unique narration style with which he perfectly implements his satirical screenplay in the movie. The screenplay of the movie is intelligent and comic in equal measures.

Dulquer also impresses in his debut movie with his pleasant salesman who turns into a reliable problem solver. The music of the movie is a bit let down in the movie. Otherwise, all other aspects of the movie work perfectly well.

Sandhira movie review rating – 3/5

Yennamo Yedho Tamil movie review


Yennamo Yedho Tamil movie review: Yennamo Yedho is a romantic comedy movie directed by Ravi Thyagarajan. The movie is a remake of a hit Telugu movie Ala Modalaindi and is produced by Ravi Prasad Productions. The music of the movie is composed by D.Imman, while Gopi Jagadeeswaran is tasked with the cinematography.

Yennamo Yedho features Gautam Karthik and Rakul Preet Singh in the lead roles. Anupama Kumar, Nikeesha Patel and Prabhu Ganesan are cast in pivotal roles. Now, let's move on to the story and the movie review of Yennamo Yedho.

Yennamo Yedho which is a romantic thriller movie, portrays the love story of Gautam Karthik and Rakul Preet Singh. It shows how they fall in love with each other and Gautam's endeavor's to win over his lady love.

Just when their life had become happy with each other's companionship, a disaster strikes. The villain of the movie Ganesan enters the movie with an intent to turn their life upside down. So, how the protagonist wins the struggle to bring his life back to normal is story of the Yennamo Yedho.

It seems lead actor Gautam whose debut movie also tanked at the box office. The biggest flaw in the movie is weak direction which has made it sluggish and erratic.

The chemistry between the main actors is also severely lacking. The cast of the movie has also underperformed, with some actors looking amateur in their act. In the nutshell, Yennamo Yedho is a one which I believe you should avoid wasting your time and money on.

Sandhira movie review rating- 1.5/5

Jatt James Bond Punjabi movie review


Jatt James Bond Punjabi movie review: Jatt James Bond is a romantic thriller movie directed by Rohit Jugraj. The script of the movie is written by Jas Grewal and is based on a novel which was in turn inspired from real life. The music of the movie is composed by Mukhtan Sahota and Jatinder Shah, and has some melodious songs sung by Pakistani Sufi legends Arif Lohar and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.

Gippy Grewal and Zarine Khan are cast in leading roles, while Gurpreet Ghuggi, Vindu Dara Singh and Yashpal Sharma are cast in other pivotal roles. Now, let's analyse how well Gippy has fared in his latest venture, in our movie review.

Jatt James Bond is the story of three strugglers who are in dire and desperate conditions. Gippy who is a bus driver has fallen in love with beautiful Zarine Khan, but her overbearing father played by Vindu Dara Singh is strictly against the match because of dire economical status of Gippy.

Ghuggi and Yashpal are in similar problems, so Gippy suggests that they attempt a robbery to earn quick bucks. They execute the robbery well but fall in trouble with the local villain who has a claim on the money. And so starts their troubles which will mess their miserable lives even more.

The screenplay of the movie is unique and good, at least in comparison to the other movies that are regularly released these days. However, Jugraj has been unable to execute the idea perfectly. Though the movie is fairly decent, still it could have been made better.

Gippy Grewal is decent in his act. Guggi and Yashpal Sharma have also performed fairly well. Mukesh Rishi looks imposing in his negative role but fails to convince with his acting. All in all, Jatt James Bond inspite, of the flaws is a decent movie.

Samsaaram Aarogyathinu Haanikaram Malayalam Movie review


Samsaaram Aarogyathinu Haanikaram Malayalam Movie review: With legendary Mammmooty's son Dulquer Salman making his debut, Samsaaram Aarogyathinu Haanikaram is one of the most anticipated movies of 2014. Balaji Mohan who was lauded for his unique narrative in debut movie Kadhalil Sodhappuvadhu Yeppadi will direct the movie.

The cinematography of the movie is undertaken by Soundararajan, while Sean Roldan has composed music of the movie. The movie is jointly produced by Y NOT Studios and Radiance Media. Now. let's take a look at the movie review.

Samsaaram Aarogyathinu Haanikaram which is a social and political satire revolves around the impact of a rare strain of flu that spreads in a village and makes people lose their ability to speak. Dulquer who is cast in the role of a salesman that sells an adhesive called Dr. Fix It, is the unlikely leader in the situation.

Mohan has cleverly used the metaphor of a flu to represent the society that due to the flu has lost it's ability to speak out against evils of society. Using the plot and sub characters, the director has portrayed that the lack of communication is main cause of our social and political problems. And he has achieved his goal with admirable dexterity.

His supreme narration skills once again come to the fore in the movie. The movie has very good flow and keeps audience interested till the very end. However, the editing is not adequately done in the movie and some scenes do appear silly and useless.

Though, Dulquer shows decent acting potential in the movie, but in some sequences he does look out of his depth. Rest of the star cast has also put decent yet unspectacular shift. All in all, Samsaaram Aarogyathinu Haanikaram is an one time watch movie.
